Abstract (en)
The invention relates to an eye surgical unit, comprising a connecting module to align, upon coupling of the connecting module to a connecting module of an eye surgical instrument, an end of a light guide which is included in the connecting module of the eye surgical instrument with respect to the connecting module of the eye surgical unit. During coupling, the connecting modules of the eye surgical unit and the eye surgical instrument mutually cooperate. The mutual cooperation of the connecting modules is realized through a multiple-thread screw connection of which corresponding screw connection elements, upon coupling of the connecting modules through mutual rotation of the connecting modules, mutually engage substantially simultaneously.
